If this thread becomes an angry discussion of religion then maybe we'll consider doing something about it, but right now you're the only person taking it that way.
YOU, SLC_Projects, are the only party in this thread that is inserting the Mormon Church into the discussion seriously. If you don't want that to be a subject, then don't make it one. By the same token, if you want the subject banned, you'll be the first person who will have to be moderated.

wow, seriously?
Just show the classless act of Crapid fans. At least our chants are towards the other team and their fans and not their faith. You can sport trash talk WITHOUT being up somebody's religion. Trash talk about the team, players or even the fan base, but leave religion out of it. It has nothing to do with sports, even if it's in a chant. Just because we are in Utah you fans feel that you HAVE to bring up religion every-time even during a sporting event. And then here comes the same old pathetic polygamy jokes, over and over and over again as if everybody in Utah has more then one wife. I don't care if it is meant as a joke. You tell the same old joke over and over and over again and it isn't funny anymore it just becomes annoying and really just makes you all look stupid if that's how you view Utah as being.
By the way somebody brought up "gay marriage" and the LDS Church that really had nothing to do with sports at all. But I guess you overlooked that post huh?

Does THAT have anything to do with sports or chanting? No.
But whatever. I'll drop it now and won't bring it up again since I want to move on. However I still don't think religion should ever be brought up during a sporting event. i guess ReAL Salt Lake must really be that great of a team if the Rapid fans have to bring up polygamy because they can't find any trash talk on RSL team itself..
Also Rapids will have a shot at CCL this summer and I hope they do well just to show the world that the MLS has good teams.
